Peter Piper Pizza's newly launched Slice of Knowledge has named its first grant recipient of $10,000, Chicanos Por La Causa in Arizona, according to a press release.

The donation will benefit education for underserved youth.

"Chicanos Por La Causa's work aligns seamlessly with our Slice of Knowledge Foundation's mission to empower youth through educational initiatives," Rochelle Romero Peter Piper Pizza brand marketing manager, said in the press release. "Thanks to our guests' generous contributions, we're able to continue making a significant impact on children's education within our communities through our new foundation."

Peter Piper Pizza raised the funds in April during a campaign in partnership with ICEE. The restaurants offered guests the opportunity to donate $2 to the Slice of Knowledge Foundation in return for five coupons, each good for one free 12-ounce ICEE.

The foundation will launch its second fundraising campaign next year.

Peter Piper Pizza is owned by CEC Entertainment. The brand has more than 120 locations in the U.S. and Mexico.
